"Once again the EiP Awards have attracted outstanding cases from all over the world. This year's winners clearly show that Learning & Development must be closely linked to organisational strategy, involve a partnership model in design and execution, measure and show impact, and have a strong focus on the personal growth, values and behaviours of individuals taking part," said prof. Eric Cornuel, CEO & Director General of EFMD.

The Gold and Silver winning cases will be presented during the upcoming EFMD Executive Development Conference which will be hosted by Católica Porto Business School on 12 - 14 October 2016.

We would like to thank all of the applicants as well as the jury members for their successful cooperation and hope to receive equally fascinating and innovative cases next year. The continuously growing quality of entries ensures that the level of competition is very high.

As well as the Gold Award winners, there were Silver Award winners and Finalists selected from all of the applications. The 2016 Silver Awards went to Telstra & LIW; Rosatom State Nuclear Energy Corporation & Moscow School for Management Skolkovo; and finally, Agence de Médecine Préventive (AMP) & Université Paris-Dauphine.
